Digital advertising is the mainstream in marketing, but physical mail like direct mail is gaining attention again. As customer attention concentrates on online channels, advertising efficiency in each channel has declined, and marketers have begun exploring different approaches. Unlike digital channels, physical mail has the characteristic of directly reaching customers’ everyday spaces.
Brands’ reconsideration of offline marketing is not a simple return. Rather than following trends, it is choosing a way that can actually reach target customers. The criteria for channel selection has shifted from advertising popularity to the effectiveness of customer connection. In the multi-channel era, the marketer’s challenge is to understand the characteristics of each channel and combine channels at the right timing.
